Act of sabotage stops pumping oil to the Cihan port of Turkey

26 Jan 2013

The process of pumping oil from the Kirkuk field to the Cihan port of Turkey is stopped due to an act of sabotage against the oil pipeline.
Source at North Oil Company said that the oil pipeline is hit at 5:00 p.m. Thursday (24th January, 2013) in an act of sabotage at the 129 km near Qayara.
Last Sunday (20th January, 2013), pumping oil was erupted inside the territories of Turkey when the pipeline was subjected to an act of terrorism.
It is really remarkable that the pipeline transporting oil from Kirkuk field to Turkey’s Jihan oil depot that transports one forth of Iraq’s oil exports is often subjected to the acts of sabotage.
